## What is Ronin?

A wandering ronin returns to the old halls – and every room is full of yokai from Japanese folklore. Ronin: Yokai Halls is a single-player action roguelite you play with one finger, in portrait mode, offline.

HOW IT PLAYS
• Drag anywhere to move and dodge shots; stand still and the ronin attacks the nearest yokai automatically.
• Each chapter has 20 floors, a mini-boss halfway and a boss at the end.
• Defeated yokai leave souls that level you up. Every level you pick 1 of 3 techniques, so no two runs are alike.
• Before each gate you pick the next reward: a relic, treasure, technique or healing spring.
• After the boss, leave or stay for the Final Onslaught: ever-stronger yokai and more gold for as long as you last.
• When you fall, you keep your gold for permanent upgrades. Leave mid-run and continue later.

TECHNIQUES, COMBOS AND RELICS
• 113 techniques in five rarities and 10 schools: projectiles, elements, orbiting blades, a toxic trail, a spirit aura, fox-fires, lightning from the sky, defense and more.
• Hold up to 9 techniques and awaken maxed ones for even more power.
• Play your way: with the Way of No Weapon you can win with blades, an aura or running alone.
• Each of the 10 weapons has 3 techniques of its own.
• 21 secret combos and 11 legendary evolutions when you max out the right pair of techniques.
• 16 relics that bend the rules. Kusanagi, the Yata Mirror and the Magatama unite as the Three Sacred Treasures.

GAME MODES
• Story: 200 chapters across 5 lands – a haunted temple, a bamboo forest, a snowy mountain pass, a fire mountain and the shadow castle of Izumo.
• Endless Tower: floors without end, a boss on every tenth.
• Daily Challenge: a new weapon, land and modifiers every day, with one attempt.
• Boss Rush: six bosses in a row, with a shrine and the merchant between them.
• 4 difficulties (Easy, Normal, Hard, Nightmare) – harder ones pay more gold – and Hardcore with a single life for double gold.

YOKAI AND BOSSES
• 29 kinds of yokai, each with its own behaviour: the living wall nurikabe, the sickle weasel kamaitachi, the bakeneko cat that rises once from the dead and more.
• Guardians with special traits: shielded, splitting, explosive, vampiric, swift and summoning.
• A nemesis: the yokai that defeats you comes back stronger – with a bounty on its head.
• 11 bosses from Japanese myth: Oni, Tengu, Yuki-onna, Gashadokuro, Yamata no Orochi, the Nine-Tailed Fox, Raijin, Ryujin and others.

SEALS, MERCHANT AND FESTIVALS
• Touch a weakened guardian to seal it – it becomes your companion and fights at your side.
• The tanuki merchant sells techniques, relics and feasts for the gold you earn during a run.
• Festivals through the year – Hanami, Tanabata, Obon, Momiji, New Year – each with its own colours, yokai and bonuses.

GROW STRONGER
• 10 upgradeable weapons: shuriken, yumi bow, ofuda talismans, katana, horoku bombs, kunai, kusarigama, tessen fan, yari spear and Raiju, the thunder beast.
• 6 heroes with their own abilities (kunoichi, monk, onmyoji…), 10 dojo training skills with secret techniques and 13 looks for your ronin.
• Ronin’s Path: every run earns points toward 40 reward tiers with gold, relics and two exclusive looks.
• Restore the ruined temple: six buildings from rubble to golden glory, each with a permanent bonus.
• A world map painted like an emaki scroll, a bestiary of folklore, a 7-day reward calendar, 3 daily quests and 36 achievements.

MADE WITH CARE
• 3D scenes rendered as crisp pixel art, original Japanese-inspired music and haptic feedback.
• English and Slovak. Plays fully offline – no account, no ads, no tracking. Move your progress to a new phone with a code.

FAIR AND OPTIONAL PURCHASES
The game is free, and everything – weapons, looks and training – can be earned with gold from playing. The shop offers three optional gold packs and three tips for the developer (each includes a gold thank-you gift). All purchases are consumable and are handled by Apple.
